Vexitoxins: a novel class of conotoxin-like venom peptides from predatory gastropods of the genus <i>Vexillum</i>

2022-01-16

Abstract excerpt

Venoms of predatory marine cone snails (the family Conidae, order Neogastropoda) are intensely studied because of the broad range of biomedical applications of the neuropeptides that they contain, conotoxins. Meanwhile anatomy in some other neogastropod lineages strongly suggests that they have evolved similar venoms independently of cone snails, nevertheless their venom composition remains unstudied. Here we focu...
